Hi,
What version of Beaver Builder are you using? And are you using the free or pro version of Beaver Builder? I installed this plugin and I deactivated WP Custom Admin Interface and I can’t even see this Beaver Builder outputting this to the toolbar. When in WordPress does this “Edit with Beaver Builder” supposed to show?
Hi. Thank you for writing back.
I am using the most recent free version of Beaver Builder for my testing. When the admin bar is turned on, and you browse to a page, the link at the top for “edit with (Beaver Builder)” will appear. But when using your plugin, that menu item vanished and won’t return, even after I reset the admin bar using your plugin.
However I created a hack just a hour ago to make it work still (until you can fix that bug). I hope this will help anyone else using a frontend editor and your plugin. Let me explain how to do it:
1. Using WP Custom Admin Interface, under the “Admin Toolbar” setting, click “Add menu item”.
2. Add your menu name
3. Add “?fl_builder” (no quotes) for the link.
Now when you are browsing a page and want to front-end edit it (Beaver Builder), it will do so.
This is a custom menu item that replaces the menu item lost by using this plugin.
Hi @amscram,
Thanks for the clarification. I see this is a toolbar item which shows on the front-end only and not on the backend. This is not a bug with the plugin because the plugin can only see toolbar items which are exposed on the backend as this is where the plugin code resides. If the Beaver Builder plugin added this toolbar item on the backend it would become available but the issue is that this is a dynamic toolbar item only shown at certain places and the plugin doesn’t have the ability to crawl every page in existence on the frontend and backend of your site to see whether a toolbar item has been created for it; nor would you want it to for obvious performance reasons.
With that said, I have released a new version of the plugin, version 7.1, which adds a new checkbox setting for the toolbar which enables you to only use the toolbar on the backend only. This would solve your issue. However it means that if you are creating other custom toolbar items these would no longer be available on the frontend with this new checkbox setting checked, in which case the solution you mentioned is ideal in this scenario.
Thanks 🙂
Talk about fast customer service! Thank you. 🙂
